Schedule Your Free Bathroom ConsultationWhen Oak Brook homes were built in the late 1970s and 1980s, the primary bathroom was considered a luxury feature. Separate from the hall bath. Larger than the secondary bathrooms. Often featuring a built-in jetted tub, a separate shower stall, double sinks, and upgraded tile. By the standards of the era, these were premium bathrooms.
By the standards of 2026, they are dated. The jetted tub no one uses occupies a third of the floor space. The shower stall is too narrow for a bench seat or multiple showerheads. The tile is ceramic, not stone. The vanity lighting is a single strip bar. The exhaust fan is loud and undersized. The layout wastes space that a modern design would use more effectively.
Oak Brook homeowners are not looking for a quick fixture swap. They are looking for a bathroom that matches the caliber of a home valued near $900,000. A walk-in shower with frameless glass and rain showerheads. A freestanding soaking tub positioned as a focal point rather than crammed into a corner. A double vanity with natural stone countertops and actual storage. Heated floors. Layered lighting. Proper ventilation. Finishes that feel intentional rather than inherited.
LuxeLine Remodeling builds bathrooms at that level. Jason Neu, the owner and licensed general contractor, leads every bathroom project from consultation through final walkthrough.
The most impactful change in most Oak Brook primary bathrooms is removing the oversized jetted tub and reconfiguring the layout. That single move frees up enough floor space to expand the walk-in shower, add a freestanding soaking tub in a better position, increase vanity counter space, or create a dedicated water closet. Layout changes require plumbing relocation and sometimes structural modification, both coordinated by LuxeLine.
Walk-in showers are the centerpiece of most Oak Brook primary bathroom renovations. We build curbless and curbed designs with frameless glass enclosures, built-in niches, bench seating, rain showerheads, handheld sprayers, and body jets. Proper waterproofing with liquid membrane systems and pre-formed shower pans is the most critical element, and we never compromise on it.
For homeowners who want a soaking tub, a freestanding model positioned as a focal point delivers more visual impact and better space efficiency than the built-in jetted tubs standard in 1980s Oak Brook homes. We handle plumbing for freestanding tub fillers and floor drains, and advise on placement that balances aesthetics with practical use.
Oak Brook primary bathrooms deserve double vanities with natural stone or quartz countertops, undermount sinks, and custom or semi-custom cabinetry. We design the vanity with actual storage solutions: drawer organizers, pullout trays, built-in electrical outlets inside drawers for hair tools, and tiered drawer inserts. The vanity should serve two people comfortably, not just look symmetrical.
The tile defines the bathroom. We install floor tile, wall tile, shower wall and floor tile, accent panels, and stone surfaces. Options include porcelain, natural marble, travertine, large-format panels, and book-matched stone slabs for feature walls. Proper substrate preparation, waterproofing, and precise layout are essential for a result that holds up for decades.
Electric radiant heat mats installed under tile flooring with a dedicated thermostat. In a bathroom with stone or porcelain tile, heated floors are not a luxury upgrade. They are what makes the room comfortable to use from October through April. The system adds minimal floor thickness and operates efficiently.
Layered lighting replaces the single vanity strip: recessed ceiling fixtures, vanity sconces or backlit mirrors for task lighting at the mirror, and accent lighting in shower niches or under floating vanities. Ventilation is upgraded to a properly sized, quiet exhaust fan (or inline fan for larger bathrooms) that prevents moisture from damaging finishes.
Relocating drains, supply lines, and vent stacks for a reconfigured layout. Adding plumbing for a freestanding tub filler. Upgrading supply lines to support multiple showerheads simultaneously. All plumbing is pressure-tested and inspected before walls close.
GFCI outlets at all required locations, dedicated circuits for heated floors, wiring for vanity lighting and shower lighting, pre-wiring for heated towel bars and smart mirrors. Oak Brook homes from this era generally have adequate panels but circuit routing often needs reconfiguration.
Jason visits your Oak Brook home, walks your bathroom, measures the space, and listens to what you want to change. You leave with a written scope outline, a ballpark budget range, a proposed timeline, and Jason's direct phone number. He follows up within 24 hours with everything in writing.
We finalize the layout, fixture selections, tile and stone choices, vanity specifications, lighting plan, and hardware. You approve every decision before demolition begins.
We pull permits through the Village of Oak Brook, order materials, confirm lead times, and build a detailed construction schedule.
Jason manages every trade: demolition, rough plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, backer board, tile and stone installation, vanity and countertop installation, fixture setting, lighting, painting, and hardware. We protect the rest of your home and clean up daily.
At each major phase (rough-in, waterproofing, tile layout, fixture placement, final finishes) we walk you through the work and get your approval before proceeding.
We inspect every surface, grout line, fixture, and finish with you. Your 24-month workmanship guarantee begins at this point.
Bathroom remodels in Oak Brook typically range from $20,000 to $75,000 or more depending on scope, size, and finishes.
Guest Bath Update ($20,000 – $32,000)
New tile, vanity, fixtures, lighting, fresh paint. The existing layout stays, and plumbing connections remain in place.
Mid-Range Primary Renovation ($32,000 – $55,000)
New walk-in shower with frameless glass, double vanity with stone countertop, new tile flooring with radiant heat, upgraded lighting, and improved ventilation.
Full Primary Transformation ($55,000 – $75,000+)
Layout reconfiguration, freestanding tub, oversized walk-in shower with multiple showerheads, custom stone and tile throughout, heated floors, custom vanity cabinetry, and upgraded plumbing and electrical.
These ranges reflect the Oak Brook market. Primary bathrooms in Oak Brook homes are often larger than average, and homeowners here select finishes that match a property valued near $900,000.
Guest Bath: 2 – 4 Weeks | Full Primary: 5 – 8 Weeks
A guest or hall bath remodel with no layout changes typically takes 2 to 4 weeks. A full primary bathroom renovation with layout reconfiguration, custom tile and stone, and heated flooring runs 5 to 8 weeks. Oak Brook primary bathrooms tend to be larger and more complex, which extends the timeline slightly.
LuxeLine provides a detailed construction timeline before work begins.
A bathroom with premium stone and frameless glass that leaks behind the walls is a six-figure failure. We use liquid membrane waterproofing systems, pre-formed shower pans, and proper drain assemblies on every wet-area installation. We pressure-test plumbing before walls close. In a home valued near $900,000, these details are not optional.

In most Oak Brook primary bathrooms from the 1980s, yes. Jetted tubs consume significant floor space and are rarely used. Removing the jetted tub and reconfiguring the layout to expand the walk-in shower or add a freestanding soaking tub is the most impactful change you can make in the room.
Natural marble and large-format porcelain are the most popular choices for Oak Brook bathrooms. Marble delivers unmatched visual richness but requires periodic sealing and is susceptible to etching from acidic products. Large-format porcelain offers durability and low maintenance with realistic stone-look finishes. Jason will walk you through the trade-offs during your consultation.
Yes. In a bathroom with stone or porcelain tile, heated floors transform the daily experience from October through April. The system adds modest cost relative to the total project and operates efficiently with a dedicated thermostat.
Yes. Bathroom remodels involving plumbing, electrical, or structural changes require permits through the Village of Oak Brook Building Department. LuxeLine handles all permitting as part of the project.
